Monitor display problem
Most of the time when I restart my computer, the display will come up with a
problem. It is okay horizontally, but the screen is compressed to about 2/3
the size of the screen vertically. Everything works okay and everything is
displayed, it's just that that it's not stretched vertically. I've
installed latest drivers. Sometimes, it will display correctly after
several reboots. Thanks for your help.

Re: Monitor display problem
It was the refresh rate. Thank you very much for your help. You solved a
